Metaalzaag - Metal saw

This equipment is safety category 6: Other equipment with no limits.

This equipment is Noise Category 3: Can be used at all hours. No limits.

We have two sizes of metal saw. Also very usable for plastics, etc.

Location

Left of center toolboard for the big ones. Second drawer from the top in the metal toolcart for the small ones.

Pitches and spares

We have several pitches; for fine and rough/fast sawing. We keep 3 common pitches in stock (18, 24 and 32).

When selecting a pitch - try to have al least 5+ 'teeth' for whatever is the length of your cut.

Blunt blades

We keep spare blades. Big ones are left of the center toolboard; small ones with the small saws.

When replacing them - put the old blade in the old-tools-box (top shelf, corridor to toilets).

When nearly finished - either order a pack of 10+ new; or report on the mailing list. Replacements can be expensed - up to around 75cent/blades is perfectly normal.
